Sleep in Children With Tourette Syndrome
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at sleep problems in children with Tourette syndrome. It uses a sleep test (PSG) to understand how sleep is disturbed, which might help find better ways to help kids rest.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at brain activity and how sensory experiences feel in adults with Tourette syndrome. It compares you to carefully matched adults without neurologic or psychiatric conditions to understand what is different in the brain.
This study follows teens with chronic tic disorders (like Tourette syndrome) for a few years to understand how their symptoms and social life change. It also looks at brain signals using EEG, but you can join the main study even if you can't do the EEG part.
This study follows adults with Tourette syndrome over time to better understand how stressors affect symptoms and daily life. It may help researchers learn what factors make symptoms better or worse and improve future care.
This Phase 2 trial tests SCI-110 to reduce Tourette syndrome tics. It may help people whose tics are moderate to severe while they take the study medicine and continue (or keep steady) their usual tic treatments.
This study looks at brain activity in people with Tourette syndrome who are already receiving deep brain stimulation (a treatment that uses electrical pulses to help control tics). The goal is to learn more about the brain signals linked to tics, which could help improve future treatments.
This study looks at sensory symptoms in adults who have Tourette syndrome or similar long-term tic disorders. Your answers to questionnaires may help researchers understand these symptoms and how they relate to the condition.
